Still don’t get why you’d dismiss a bodyguard because you think there won’t be a threat and he’d listen. It’s literally his job to make sure that there IS no threat to you.
I don't know where the OP got the idea that Parker had permission to leave; he just did during the intermission to drink at a nearby tavern. Parker had a reputation for indiscipline, for example spending time in a brothel while on duty. On the other hand, during the day Booth had prepared the scene including ensuring the locks on the box abd the adjoining one were broken, drilling a peephole, and installing a bar to enable him to jam the door shut. He also carried a knife and was planning to stab the guard on duty if necessary.
@@Swissswoosher Well actually, Parker SAID he was released by Lincoln. Parker was a notorious liar who was disciplined multiple times. He was actually tried for neglect of duty on that night, the charge being dismissed on a technicality (no transcripts were kept). He was finally dismissed from the police for drunkenness on the job in 1868. What is not understandable how he kept his job in the White House detail for so long.
@@Swissswoosher He didn't. That was left up to the police. Lincoln's regular guard (and personal friend), Ward Hill Lamon, was sent on a mission to Richmond by Lincoln. He never forgave himself for that. But it is true that Lincoln did not credit the danger and also seemed to think that he was fated to be murdered. Stanton tried to convince him to take more care (in general, but also tried to stop him from going to the theatre that night), but he refused. It also seems to me that the amateurishness of Booth's conspiracy was only exceeded by that of the authorities. They knew about Booth's group for more than a month but didn't take it seriously... perhaps because of that amateurishness.
Booth was actually a pretty famous actor.. imagine Tom Hanks shooting Biden😂 and also with a name like "Booth".. he was named for this. Shooting a president in a booth.
Booth was a famous actor and knew the play that was going on and shot Lincoln at the loudest part of the play and it distracted the viewers from the assassination. Booth then broke his leg when falling and was caught at a warehouse.
I’m not 100% sure on this but I think that the soldiers who found him decided to kill him the same way he killed Lincoln but because the bullet entered in a different way it took him several hours to die while Lincoln died relatively painlessly
@@TheHapiTacono, they were trying to capture him and he pulled a gun inside his cabin and one of the soldiers saw and shot him immediately after he saw the gun.
Fun fact, He also broke his leg jumping on the stage. And when he shot the bullet he timed it when everyone was laughing sp the thought it was apart of the play. It took a few seconds to realize booth actually shot abraham
I was waiting for someone to actually say what happened in the video they said he left in the back door it's true but he jumped off and broke his leg because his leg was stuck on the American flag
The gunshot actually didn’t startle the audience. Booth knew the play and shot right as a burst of laughter occurred in the crowd. Most did hear it slightly but thought it was part of the play. Then Booth jumped from the balcony and some people still thought it was part of the play
Booth must've broken his leg from the jump on stage. I saw the photo of Lincoln. One eye bulged out. The jaw was slack. A photo of instant death. I'll never forget it.
There was someone at the door of the balcony that Lincoln was in but Booth showed the person something and then he let Booth in, I don't thin anyone knows what Booth showed the person. Abraham didn't know that Booth was there because he was being very quiet though.
What happened was the gunshot went off after a great roar of laughter came. Then someone yelled after Booth had screamed his words, “ Stop him. He has shot the president “
@CHEESEYCHUCK I always have that problem with other people thinking that. THE DATE I WAS BORN IS APRIL 14 and I'm actually 72,000,000,000 6ears old I saw the dinos and went through an extinction
It's too bad the guard couldn't be bothered with protecting the president that evening. Apparently, John F Parker was originally there with the Lincolns at Ford's Theater but opted to go to a nearby bar.
John Wilkes Booth went to the theatre earlier in the day to fetch his mail and that's when he learnt that Lincoln would be at the play that evening. The play was "Our American Cousin" written by Tom Taylor. It was to be a benefit for a Miss Laura Keene (real name Mary Moss) who performed her role 1,000 times. After hearing Lincoln would be at the performance he went to the orchestra pit and found a broken music stand. He took that upstairs and hid it behind the door for that evening and started preparing his plan for that night. The Grants were originally supposed to accompany the Lincolns but they were away. Instead they invited Clara Harris and her fiancé Major Henry Rathbone. Later Booth arrived at the theatre and had a look around. He realised that the play was running behind schedule so he went next door to the Star Saloon. Than the Lincolns, Clara Harris and Major Rathbone arrived and Miss Keene saw them and ordered "Hail to the Chief" to be played. After taking his bows and waving he sat down and the play resumed. Booth came back to the theatre and went up to the box. Booth was such a famous actor that he wasn't even confronted and everyone at the theatre knew him personally. Parker was nowhere to be seen. There are many theories as to where he was. Some say that he moved to get a better view of the play and some say he was discharged due to the Lincolns feeling safe and others say he was never there. But Booth went into the small vestibule and wedged the door shut with a piece of wood from the music stand he put up earlier. He was waiting for a specific line in the play because he knew it would bring up laughter and thunderous applause and muffle the shot. A lone actor Harry Hawk was on stage and around 10:15 he was facing stage right and delivered his line: "Don't know the manners of good society... eh? Wal I know enough to turn you inside out old gal.... you sockdologizing old mantrap.. at that moment Booth opened the door behind the president and shot him with a single shot Derringer 44 calibre. In the left occipital lobe, thickest part of the skull. Lincoln's spine was never severed. Everyone was so busy laughing and clapping at the line. Booth meanwhile dropped the gun and grappled with Major Rathbone and sliced his arm from wrist to elbow before off balance tumbling out of the box and landing so he broke a bone in his leg. He got up and sauntered to centre stage and than he shouted "Sic Sempre Tyrannus" and may've also said "The South is Avenged" the people originally thought that it was a part of the play. Only Mary Lincoln's screaming had people realising what happened. Major Rathbone while injured kicked the wedge from the door. Since Booth was waving a knife when shouting as he left they thought Lincoln was stabbed until they accidentally found the bullet wound in his head. It than became a death watch and he was taken to the Peterson House across the street and put in the backroom where he died at 7:22 am. I used to volunteer at Ford's Theatre in the 80s.
The 1800s was a time of greater freedoms, less over reaching, government controls, lesser levels of professionalism, and people could still think for themselves. 😯
I saw this in person it was really cool and also a lot of people don’t know this, but there was someone in the booth with Lincoln other than his wife and it was one of his friends and his girlfriend. When Lincoln got shot, his friend tried to kill booth, but was overpowered and stabbed through the arm
Booth was almost stopped Booth went to the front of the box intending to escape but there was a Major in the box where Lincoln was and the Major jumped from his seat grabbed Booth from behind and pulled him back from the railing but Booth twisted around his grip and Booth was stronger than him, so he was able to free himself and slash the major with a knife and then jumped.
To be fair, it was 1865-not as if they had enough medical expertise to figure out EXACTLY why he died. The surgeon literally poked through Lincoln's brain with bare, unwashed fingers-it couldn't have made Lincoln's condition any worse, but it's certainly not very exact. And regardless, when it comes to being shot in the brain, the exact trajectory rarely matters-the result, at least in Lincoln's case, would have been the same either way.
@@ob2kenobi388 Well, I get your point. Dead is dead. There's no disputing that. I just never heard of a spinal chord injury which starts at the base of the skull.
He was shot behind his left ear and it was retrieved from behind his right eye in the autopsy. Weird history had Lincoln being buried on Easter Sunday after being shot on Good Friday, fact checking is not always done by the creators.
I’ve been to the theater and his seating, he couldn’t even see anything and also the paintings show that the theater is big, but actually is pretty tiny
You forgot the part where he broke his leg jumping from the booth to the stage and then when he ran out the side door he was arrested and I think killed because his leg hurt so much he could barely walk so the police found him like 10 feet away.
Booth was a famous actor and he wasn’t the only person behind the assasination. There were four people involved. One named James Powell was supposed to kill the senator but failed. One which i forget his name was supposed to kill the vice president (which was the easiest job). He was later arrested for giving “old friends” information about his plan to kill the vice president. Booths friend Herold came with him on a long journey to escape (herold was one of the four people). they went all the way down to south carolina where confederate soldiers ratted out where Booth and Herold were. They were in a barn of a civilians house and the civilians locked them in there after they fell asleep in the barn. The Union soldiers then chased them all the way down to the barn and burned it down. Lincoln came out of the barn and killed himself in front of the soldiers and i forgot what happened to Herold. Hope some of y’all learned smth
I remember this like it twas yesterday. The evening started out delightfully as everyone was enjoying the show by candlelight. IN the blink of an eye, tragedy happened. I was quite startled from the sound as I hollored" oh my goodness" I looked over at mr lincoln as he blurted out the words ""ouch, that did not feel pleasant"
The audience did not freak out immediately in fact, they started to freak out after someone in the presidential booth (I forgot their name) said something like “stop that man!” and that’s when the audience started to freak out because they never heard a gunshot and even when the guy who shot Abe and jumped down they still thought it was apart of the play.
His body is sneaky in his did he is big head traitor body guard😂 to get more women in secret, and that fate to the looter CIDG of Duterte if he do eat six about a ⛲⛲⛲🌌🌌🌌...(in hell)😂 rich man CIDG⛲⛲⛲🌌🌌🌌 he make booking for six with my crush he make loan because he is rich man 😂
I'm pretty sure he was making a lot of noise while the play was going on And started yelling at a guy something like " Now you f***** u*, now you f***** u*, now you f***** u* , now you have f***** u*." Since honest abe Wasn't great at keeping quiet during plays , a gentleman told him to be quiet and he responded with the words above Causing the random play watcher to beat him to death with a hammer
I would say that conspiracy.... Lincoln should have two guards at all times and even a third guarding the back door...!He knew he got a lot of enemy after the civil war ended...😮
iirc, didn't the other sympathizers have a plan to get booth out of the US after the assassination, but his broken ankle was what eventually got him caught? I can't remember...
Apples to oranges your ankles part of your leg last time I checked. At least you feel better for setting me straight. All I know is his ass won’t walking that great after blew Lincoln’s brains out.
What's cool is that they kept the way the theater looked that night and it still looks like it today. Today Ford Theater is a museum about Lincolns assassination
Lincolns son was at a theater down the Rhode watching a children's play not knowing his father had been shot. They stopped the play a man went on stage a announce the president had been shot.

I don't know where the OP got the idea that Parker had permission to leave; he just did during the intermission to drink at a nearby tavern. Parker had a reputation for indiscipline, for example spending time in a brothel while on duty.
On the other hand, during the day Booth had prepared the scene including ensuring the locks on the box abd the adjoining one were broken, drilling a peephole, and installing a bar to enable him to jam the door shut. He also carried a knife and was planning to stab the guard on duty if necessary.

Fun Fact: he yelled Death to all tyrants when he jumped down, Blessed Be.
Abraham lincoln was no tiyrnat though

Matt: I was just stating facts, Blessed Be.
@@mattmccullough1093he was. He arrested journalists for being against him.
“This play boutta slap like crazy blud”
Lincolns bodyguard: oh, I have some snacks for the play oh
I'm pretty sure he was making a lot of noise while the play was going on And started yelling at a guy something like " Now you f***** u*, now you f***** u*, now you f***** u* , now you have f***** u*." Since honest abe Wasn't great at keeping quiet during plays , a gentleman told him to be quiet and he responded with the words above Causing the random play watcher to beat him to death with a hammer
I would say that conspiracy.... Lincoln should have two guards at all times and even a third guarding the back door...!He knew he got a lot of enemy after the civil war ended...😮
This assassination led to the creation of the Secret Service, back then a president being murdered was unheard of
“He’s right behind me, isn’t he” -Abraham Lincoln 1865
The assassin:yo April fool's you don't gotta take it seriously 😶
He should have been protected.
Absolutely 😮 another guard should have been assigned to Lincoln after the other guard left
POS Tyrant killed more Americans than any President and he had gay sex
@@anthonywhite2544The first guard was a drinker and nobody knows why they hired him
When I watched the assassination, I cried. That's how you know he's the best in history!
Ok ok 👌
where the hell did you watch the assassination
@@ThePharaoh9 On RUclips!
Are you talking about the "found footage" of the assassination, cause that's fake as hell. Its a scene from an old movie
@@Screwdreadnaughtsyes they didn’t invent video cameras until 23 years after he died
Booth pulled that assassins creed move right there
“This play bout to be lit”
Assassins creed 3 be like
So? 😐
@@bonk6531?
The footage was scary. Rest in peace
It's not real it's from a movie
I Jumped out of bed and couldn’t sleep
@@robotman1558 it’s Real. Don’t you think you’re stupid and your family?
Bro is batman😂
Sometimes I really wonder, what are on these people's minds😞
Democrats did this
It's ok when they do it.
If you're going to try to drag events from over 150 years ago into modern politics, then Reaganomics and the Patriot Act are far more relevant.
@@headgames3115 People still bring up slavery as if its relevant to today.
@@theguybehindyou4762 that's been argued as a generational issue, and MTG compares herself to the Jews under the Nazis for everything
"It's a cannon event boys"
Booth broke a bone in his leg too
Booth actually broke his legs jumping from the balcony
And he broke his leg when he jumped
No he didn't he shattered several small bones in his ankle.
iirc, didn't the other sympathizers have a plan to get booth out of the US after the assassination, but his broken ankle was what eventually got him caught? I can't remember...
Apples to oranges your ankles part of your leg last time I checked. At least you feel better for setting me straight. All I know is his ass won’t walking that great after blew Lincoln’s brains out.
R.I.P A. Lincoln "Always will be the best."
He was a tyrant. Hope he burns in hell.

Bro went to the back rooms after completing a side quest 😂
Bro rlly said “peekaboo”
What's cool is that they kept the way the theater looked that night and it still looks like it today. Today Ford Theater is a museum about Lincolns assassination
The theater fell into disrepair - It had to be rebuilt from the ground up
Lincolns son was at a theater down the Rhode watching a children's play not knowing his father had been shot. They stopped the play a man went on stage a announce the president had been shot.
"Prank em' John"💀💀
"John F."
KENNEDY!
"Parker"
oh
"IT was an April fools prank bro"
